Mac Pro Graphic Card Problem

I have 2 mac pro (early 2008) that installed Nvidia geforce 7300 GT on it.. Now the graphic card wont display anything..I don't know which graphic card is compatible with my mac ,I cant get the original graphic card here in my country.. I can hear boot up hard noise sound ,so i think it log in to OS but there is no display..
thanks for helping.

Are you certain on your MP being a 2008? The 2008 MP came stock with the ATI 2600. The 2006 MP came stock with the 7300gt. Afaik, you can't install a 7300gt (EFI32) on a 2008 MP (EFI64).
This might make things easier:
2006 MP - compatible video cards
- 7300gt
- 8800gt
- certain Quadros, not exactly sure on which exact ones...
- ATI 1900
- ATI 2600
- ATI 3870
- ATI 4870
2008 MP - compatible video cards
- 8800gt (EFI64)
- EVGA 285 GTX
- GT120 (afaik)
- certain Quadros, not exactly sure on which exact ones...
- ATI 2600
- ATI 3870
- ATI 4870

  • Mac Pro Graphics Cards

    I am using an early Mac Pro 3 GHz Dual-Core Intel Xeon with an NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT Graphics Card. I am thinking of upgrading my monitor to a 24" model with high resolution.
    Can anyone give me advice on whether I need, or could benefit from, a new Graphics Card?
    Any advice would be most appreciated.
    YAGOM

    The NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT graphics card has one dual-link DVI port that can handle a display up to 2560 x 1600, and one single-link DVI port that can handle up to 1920 x 1200, so unless you need more graphics speed, such as for games, you don't need a new graphics card.
    Note: there is currently no way to use the new Apple 24" LED display with any Mac Pro graphics card.

  • Mac keeps crashing whenever using Office for Mac (possible graphic card problem)

    Mid 2010 15 inch MacBook Pro. Played out perfectly for the first two years. As soon as the warranty expired, things went sideways. Do not know why but whenever I try to use Office 2011 for Mac the entire mac freezes for a millisecond and then crashes. Does this repeatedly whenever I try using Office.

    I've done a couple of modifications on it but I dont believe they have affected it to such extent. I believe it might be a defective graphic card but at this point, believing the crash was induced by the usage of Office I have done everything possible short to dismembering the Mac and changing the Graphic Card. I have read somewhere that mid 2010s had problems with graphic cards. If anyone has found a way around the changing of the card, I would be very grateful of their opinion and suggestions.

    First, uninstall the software responsible for installing these extensions:
    com.logmein.driver.LogMeInSoundDriver          1.0.0
    com.squirrels.driver.AirParrotSpeakers          1.8
    com.rim.driver.BlackBerryUSBDriverInt          0.0.68
    If removing the software and extensions doesn't solve the problem, then you are probably correct about the GPU:
    The problem is likely due to the discreet GPU failing. Download gfxCardStatus 2.3 and use it to disable the GPU. This is a temporary workaround until you get your motherboard replaced.

  • Mac Pro Graphics Card causing freezes?

    Hi there,
    My 1st Gen Mac Pro keep freezing...most times requiring a restart. The freezes seem to occur when 'using' the graphics card (Nvidia 7300GT). Have completely reinstalled OSX and it still happens.
    Hardware Test doesn't bring up a problem with the graphics card, but there are some weird black glitches which appear on text and also some windows acquire the ability to rub others out...? Also, on turning on, the computer sometimes shows just red, green random patches of colour. The problems seem to be getting gradually worse.
    Monitor is fine (have tested with another and the same thing happens). The freezes have happened happen when doing the following...
    1. Orbiting in Sketchup
    2. Changing between windows in Finder
    3. Scrolling through the Console Window (ironically in a failed attempt to find out what was wrong...)
    4. Using the Space bar on a file on look at it quickly.
    Does this sound like the GPU is shot? I have ordered a new 8800GT from the Apple Store in the meantime (we could always put it in another Mac Pro).
    Has anyone encountered a similar problem before and if so, was there a fix?
    Thanks,
    n.b. the Mac Pro is not covered by AppleCare and is out of warranty.

    Actually, the other thing which makes me suspicious is the appearance of the word 'nvidia' in the kernel panic log

  • Mac Pro  Graphics card and Motion 5

    I purchased my Mac Pro in 2007,  It is 2x 2.66 GHz dual core with 12 GB 667 MHz DDR2 F8-DIMM
    My grahpics card is Radeon X1900.
    Is this sufficient for Motion 5 and will I see a difference in speed, etc from Motion 4.
    Also, is it possible to upgrade my graphics card to say, ATI 4870 to improve graphic performance all around?   I have a real problem with complex graphics and usually cannot see them in full render until I compress the project.
    Thanks,
    Sandra

    Any of the graphics cards that Apple sells for the Mac Pro will be fine. Personally, I'd suggest choosing one with at least 128MB video RAM, 256MB would be better.
    2GB RAM in your Mac Pro will be more than enough for general purpose video editing. Going to 4GB will give you more oomph for RealTime effects and somewhat for rendering but you won't see a big difference in regard to capturing or general editing in the timeline.

  • Mac pro graphics card

    I found some places in the internet saying that with the new Mac OSX 10.8.3 update, the Mac Pro can now use some Graphics Card from PC computers. Is it true, and which cards are supported?
    I know that there are two new card with Mac Edition: EVGA Nvidia GTX 680 Mac Edition, and the Radeon HD 7950 for Mac. But these are made for Mac. I want to know about the regular ones for PC.
    Thanks!

    Thanks for all the answers!
    kaz-k:
    I was aware of the netkas site, but i'm kinda noob in this matter. It has tons of infos, but for someone starting it doesn't have a "crash course" to begin.
    jamie763p:
    What do you mean by a fainted-heart process? Did you have to flash the cards for them to work? Or just to get the boot screen?
    If I get a GTX680 PC Edition, will it work without problems, just like the Mac Edition (except for the boot screen)? Even for the 4gb one? Plug and play? The cables supplied with the PC Edition will do? Or should I get other cables?
    The hatter:
    I have a small video production, mainly using FCP7, After Effects CS6 (all Adobe collection actually). Using AE CS6 with Element3D, and others things.
    The new card would help a lot with the use and render of these things.
    For this it's best with Nvidia, right? Or the Radeon?
    I don't mind for the boot screen.
    Thank you all!

  • Upgrade existing Mac Pro graphics card

    I'd like to upgrade the graphics card that's in my Mac Pro that I bought last year. Doesn't have to be the latest one that came out with the new ones this week. The ATI Radeon X1900 XT would be fine.
    Can I purchase one from Apple? I tried Otherworld Computing (macsales.com) and they didn't have any options.
    Any suggestions?
    I'm not looking for a Windows only card as I've seen some threads referring to, I want something that I can use natively in Mac OS X Leopard.
    Thanks

    I bought a Pro as I was led to believe that it was 'upgrade-able' and in the future I was able to change components as new developments came down the pipeline. Now I find this not to be true , I may as well have bought an iMac or Macmini.
    What in earth is the point of having upgrade slots if you can't upgrade things ??
    This whole thing smacks of utter incompetence and a tinge of underhand business attitude , forcing people to buy a new £3,000 computer just to change their video card. Its OUTRAGEOUS !
    This is the LAST time I will ever buy a mac tower , it's back to iMacs for me . I had similar problems in 1994 when I bought a Quadra 840av , then Apple not only changed to PPC but from Nu Bus to PCI !
    My suggestion : if you don't expect to upgrade your computer within 6-12 months of owning it , buy something integrated and accept you'll just have to change every 2-3 years. You'll save money in the long run and won't feel ripped off.
    Apple should be ashamed of themselves for allowing this to happen , imo it's disgraceful.
    Finally the fact that the X1900 is a buggy , noisy pile of junk doesn't help. The 8800 would be a fantastic upgrade but as I've outlined earlier , that option has been taken away from us.
    Really really shocking.

  • 1st Gen Mac Pro Graphics Card replacement??

    I have a 1st generation mac pro and the nvidia geforce 7300 GT graphics card died.
    what can I replace this with that is relatively inexpensive? Does it need to be 256 or 512 MB?

    Thank You. That isn't quite my situation. There is a back on April 11th. 2010 and still unsolved. That is very disappointing considering there are a lot of people who are genius with technical issues on this forum.
    It booted up OK from a long power down time but if I have to restart for any reason or power down and start up within a few minutes, I will have nothing on the display (black). The little light is on and if you touch the button the light will goes to sleep but nothing on the display. I checked everything and tried every combinations. What I ended up with is; 1. to leave the computer on forever until the end of time but I can't because sometimes the fan would come on high and stay on., 2. if I have to restart, I have to unplug both power chords and wait at least half an hour to forty five minutes then plug everything back in and start. Most of the time it will work. This puzzled me.
    Everywhere I posted this problem, I've had zero answer. There must be some one who knows this issue and solved it before. Hello! Are you out there? Help me please!

  • 1st Gen Mac Pro: Graphics Card Needed Urgently

    My mac pro is first generation (Model Identifier: MacPro1,1) Not the 2008 Mac Pro.
    I have Chipset Model: ATY,RadeonX1900
    This card is failing. Pram reset, SMC reset, and/or repair permissions do not work. I cleaned the fan intake area as well... card is still failing (won't wake from sleep, no display on reboot, etc etc).
    I have searched these forums high and low. Can anyone please provide me with a good option for a replacement card?
    The closest I have gotten is the "Apple nVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT Graphics Upgrade Kit for 1st Generation Mac Pro" which is now discontinued (?)
    I am getting really frustrated here, please help!

    Hey,
    I am having the exact issue with my Mac Pro (2.66 gig first gen intel). I have a discussion (unresolved) that you can find here.
    http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=9666490#9666490
    I wonder how many folks are having this particular card die early on them. I think the problem is more widespread than Apple would indicate on the phone.
    Anyway, my concern is whether or not the replacement card will be able to use the Open CL (sp?) protocol that will come with Snow Leopard. This will allow the computer to use free cycles on the graphics card to boost processing power. The guy on the phone and at the Apple store I went to was fuzzy on this. The last thing I want to do is upgrade to an antiquated card.
    He suggested the Nvidia GeForce 8800 GT which I cannot find (discontinued).
    Does anyone know if the 4870 will take advantage of the new Snow Leopard features?
    Thanks,
    G

  • Which MAC Pro graphics card and how much RAM for FCE HD usage?

    I plan on purchasing a MAC Pro afer MacWorld Expo next month. Any recommendations for a specific graphics card that would complement my usage of Final Cut Express HD 3.5?
    Also, should I increase my RAM? I currently use 2 gb of RAM on my G4. Will I see greater productivity if I bump it up to 4gb of RAM on the MAC Pro or will 2gb suffice which I had planned to increase it to from the standard 1gb supplied?
    PowerMAC G4 dual 1.42ghz Mac OS X (10.4.7) 2gb RAM, 3-LaCie FW800 external drives

  • Mac Pro Graphics Card Options

    So... I am about to purchase a Mac Pro and have a few questions regarding the graphics card options.
    I plan on using two 19" flat screens that I already have for my monitors. Obviously this can be accomplished without a card upgrade, but I would prefer to have as much video RAM as possible. If I went with a second GeForce 7300, in addition to the stock card, and output only one monitor from each card, would that in effect enable 256 mb of RAM per display? As upgrading to the X 1900, which has 512 mb of RAM, would be the same amout of RAM per display (512mb/2 displays).... I realize that the cards have different chips, engines, etc... I'm just trying to get the most bang for my buck and am wondering if that extra hundred dollars is really worth it. Much thanks, cheers!

    I have a NVIDIA Quadro FX 4500 on my MacPro with two ACD 30" connected to it. No glitch, works perfect. But I would say that the X1900 is the best value to get when you'll perchase your MacPro. You don't say enough details about the usage you want from your computer (i.e. 3d or just e-mails...). But if it's just for internet browsing and e-mails, a NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT is more than enough to handle your two 19". If you think one day you'll have two 30" on you video card, go for the ATI card. If you do video rendering that needs VRAM or play 3D games, take the ATI card. If you have a lot of money to blow or just a geek take the FX4500. Anything else, just stick to the 7300 GT, it's more than enough for average users, less heat, quiet, and less electric consuption than the two others.
    Cheers,
    Hai Au

  • Mac Pro Graphics card expansion

    Hi, I'm a little confused as to how I can expand the graphics capability of my Mac Pro. It has a Radeon 2600XT 256 meg graphics card. I know I can add another one of those, but many of the Radeon 2600 XT cards I see are 512 meg. Will those work too? If I do add another 2600XT 256, would there be a noticeable improvement in performance in games like Second Life?
    Thanks

    You can only use an Apple Radeon, and having two won't improve things. If you run Windows you can use Apple's or 3rd party PC card.

  • Mac pro graphics card compatibility

    I have a 2008 mac pro works wonderful but the graphics card has recently burned out.
    I need to replace it but I want something more modern.
    What kinds of graphics cards are compatible with this model of mac pro.
    Preferably not something that has a price tag less than the computer.

    http://www.barefeats.com has done benchmark tests on just about all the GPU you can use in the last 4 months, easy to find.
    The ATI 5770 is your cheapest non-PC card choice, B&H and Amazon also sell Apple model and can save sometimes.

  • Mac Pro Graphics Card Issue

    Hi
    I bought a faulty Mac Pro to see if I could do anything with it. The serial tells me it is a late 2008 single CPU quad core. I stuck a drive with OSX 10.6.8 in it and turned it on. I get the chime but nothing on the monitor. However, my mac pro sees it as a server. It appears under 'Shared' in Finder along with my Mac so I guess something is alive in there. It has a real basic graphics card like nothing I see when I search the net for Mac Pro 2008 graphics card. Does anyone think that it may just be the card? If so I may take the risk.
    Thanks
    Phil

    take it out. look at it. tell us just what graphic card is in there you are trying to use.
    that should always be you know like step #1
    there was no "late 2008" just Early 2008 or better yet "3,1" or similar designation.
    It came with OEM 2600XT and those can be flakey. Could be they used something else. 8800GTs die too.
    The Apple ATI 5770 is the best safest bet $249, requires 10.6.5 but there is NO such DVD, only 10.6.3 sold retail sadly.
    FBDIMMs have gotten cheaper by 10:1 and worth looking at a set just to be sure.
